When a person is obliged to lie con-
stantly in n position, as is the case
with a broken leg, the pressure coming
constantly on the same place. bedsores
must be guarded against. The lower
part of the back is most frequently at
tackled. The nurse should pass her hand
under it at least twice a day to see that
the draw sheet is free from wrinkles and
creases. Morning and night she must
battle it with a small sponge dipped in
alcohol, or q solution of fannie acid, and
when it is dry rub it with corn starch OIL
buckwheat flour. 1t may seem i'm
possible to her to get her hand under
meath, but most beds will yield u little to
pressure and by working in a roll of old
linen under the back above the place to
be bathed, she will obtain a little space to
work in. If in spite of precautions the
back ecomes sore an air cushion with a
hole in the middle must be used to pre-
vent the sore from coming in contact
with any surface, or it cannot heal

HE WAS GOING EAST.
A Man Takes a Long Drive With a
Cheyenne Livery Team.

Last Wednesday morning a man called
at Abney's livery stable, in this city, and
asked for a team for a couple of hours,
paying S. in advance therefor. 1t seems
that the man forgot to return in the time
specified; in fact, he would very likely be
going yet had he not been stopped. Mr..
Abney hearing that the man was near
Bushnell station on Thursday night, in
formed Sheriff Sharpless of the matter,
and that gentleman took Friday mornings
train for the East. When near Antelope
station he perceived his man driving along
the road running near the track. He
alighted from the train at Antelope and
waited for the man, and arrested him as
soon as he drove up. He was brought to
this city, and is now confined in the coun-
ty Jail. He gives his name as Fred
Kicker, and says that he was in pursuit
OF a man who owed him some money, and
would soon have returned the cam He
will have a preliminary hearing tomorrow
before Judge Fisher.

The last coach on the Black Hills Stage
Line out of this city left for the North
yesterday morning. 1t was with q gen.
eral feeling of regret that our citizens
witnessed the departure from this city of
the large coach with its six handsome
horses attached. The Cheyenne & Black
Hills Stage line has so long made this
city its headquarters, that it seems like
bidding adieu to an old pioneer custom to
have no more stages running into the
city. All who saw it depart were wildly
reminded Of the days of the iron coach,
the road agents and Indians with which
the traveller had often to contend. AS
the coach left yesterday several large
photographs were taken of it, both while
in motion and stationary, by Mr.. c. D.
Kirkland. Hereafter the stage company
will make its headquarters at the Chug,
the coach leaving there each day upon ar
rival of the Cheyenne & Northern train
from this city. The coach will also arrive
at the Chug in time to make connection
with the train coming in from the Chug.

DR.. Frederick T. Miner, a prominent ply
sician of Honolulu, Hawaii, is spending a few
days in New York, winding up the first visit
he has made 10 his native country In twenty
years.
Hawaii Is one of the most beautiful and
delightful spots In the world, - said the doctor
the other day to a party Of friends who had
given him a dinner, and it Is only a ques-
ton OF time when it will become u very rich
and profitable dependent of some country.
The native dynasty cannot last much longer.
At present it is little more than a name. The
king is sunk in idleness and luxury, and for
eign influences struggle for the control of
things The native population OF Hawaii is
rapidly passing away In a very few years,
comparatively. 1T will be practically extinct.
What carries off the people! Leprosy, for
the most part, and then some such mysteri-
GUS incompatibility Of races as made the
North American Indians melt away before
the Europeans. The islanders were IA fine
race originally, but the vices they have
learned from the white mon have worked
their ruin.
THE ravages of leprosy in Hawaii have
not been overdrawn. don't know how they
could be even adequately described to one
who had never witnessed them. The terrible
W. ~ - l7tAsRAA IA az ~ ttht
will eventually run through and wipe out the
entire native race. The g~overnpsent does
1t can in its feeble way to keep tho dis
case from spreading. All authenticated cases
are isolated on an island in the harbor. Ply.
sicians hired at the public cost watch for the
disease and study its symptoms. But it still
increases steadily among the natives. The
foreigners catch it sometimes. IL Is u great
mistake, however, to suppose, as most people
do, that the disease il contagious. IL can be
communicated from one person 10 another
only by contact and an actual transmission OF
virus, as by n wound or Il sore. ! have treat
ed thousands Of lepcfs, been with them when
they died, visited the leper hospital on the
island and ate the o prepared for leper
p~alates by leper hands. I have handled liv.
ing and dead lepers with impunity, and so
have hundreds OF other Caucasians. On the
other hand, hundreds OF white men have been
infected by the disease In the way that l havs
named and nave died the most horrible
and loathsome Of deaths. Now York Mail
